Smoked Organic Salmon

Irish Organically grown salmon, cured in sea salt and a trace of organic raw cane sugar, then smoked over oak sawdust fires. Filleted, pin boned and trimmed by hand, our smoked salmon is available in 100gm, 200gm and 500gm sliced packs; It is also available in whole sides ranging from 800gms to 1.5kgs, either unsliced or sliced.

We have been smoking salmon at Ummera for nearly half a century, initially using Wild Atlantic Salmon, but for the last fourteen years we have been smoking organically grown Atlantic Salmon, grown in the pristine waters of the west coast of Ireland. Our smoked salmon has received accolades from around the world and has received Gold awards at the Great Taste Awards over the years.

Product Description

We source our Organic Salmon from the west coast of Ireland, originally from Clare Island, which is four miles off the coast of County Mayo in the west of Ireland, but organically grown salmon is now available from a number of sites off the west coast of Ireland.

Organic Salmon are provided with special diets that contain only organic, natural ingredients and are free of genetically modified products. Phaffia, a yeast based pigment, ensures the salmon have that natural salmon-pink colour.

Stocking densities are low, in line with organic welfare concepts. This calculates out at just 0.5% to 1% of fish by volume in the water, less than half that of conventional farms. The Irish Atlantic waters they live in are classed by the European Union as 1A in quality — the best there is. A constant 2-knot flow and high tidal exchange rates continuously flush the pens with fresh water, preventing any build up of parasites or pollutants. This natural, healthy environment and low population density allows the fish to develop good muscle and body shape.

For nearly forty years Ummera has built up an enviable reputation for producing some of the finest smoked salmon available. We originally concentrated on smoking the Wild Atlantic Salmon which were caught by fishermen as the salmon returned from their feeding grounds in the North Atlantic. Since 2006, when it was obvious that over-fishing was having significant effects on wild salmon stocks, Ummera has been smoking Irish organically reared salmon.

Their natural flavour and texture, blended with our careful curing, and gentle smoking over smouldering oak fires ensure that you will enjoy the finest smoked salmon …Learn more
